One day in a poor country town thousands of miles away from the nearest
city, years n eras ago. A rat looked through a crack in the wall to see a
farmer and his wife opening a package. What food might it contain?
The rat was shocked to discover that it was a rat trap. Retreating to the
farmyard, the rat announced of the imminent risk, "There is a rat trap in
the house, a rat trap in the house!" The chicken clucked and scratched,
raised her head and said, Excuse me, Mr. Rat, I can tell this is a grave
concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by
it, not my problem". The rat turned to the pig and told him, "There is a
rat trap in the house, a rat trap in the house!" "I am so very sorry Mr.Rat,"
sympathized the pig, "but there is nothing I can do about it but pray.

Be assured that you are in my prayers." The rat turned to the cow. ! She
said, "Like wow, Mr. Rat. A rat trap. I am in grave danger. Duh? im the biggest
here, do i look like i'll b trapped in one?" So the rat returned to the
house, heads down and felt rejected, & now need to face the farmer's rat
trap alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house,like the sound of a
rat trap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what was
caught.
In the darkness, she did not see that it was a venomous snake whose tail
the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer couldnt rush
her to the hospital as the town had no transportation & that the nearest
hospital is a few days' travel. She returned home with a fever.

Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer
took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient. His
wife's sickness continued therefore friends and neighbors came to sit with her
around the clock. To fe! ed them the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife still did not get well. She died eventually & villagers
came to her funeral & now the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide
meat for all who came.

Moral to the story: The next time you hear that someone is facing a problem
and think that it does not concerns you, remember that when there is a rat
trap in the house, the whole farmyard is at risk.

If you're not part of a problem, You're part of a solution.
